Ed Driscoll posts at Instapundit a Byron York quote from the Washington Examiner, check it out.
Some Democrats are calling on their elected representatives to engage in violence against Trump’s policies. At the same time, groups that might be characterized as militant allies of the progressive Democratic movement are resorting to violence in an effort to obstruct the president’s enforcement of federal immigration law.Some radicals have committed politically motivated murder, for which they received support in some far-left circles. And it is all happening in the context of one of the two major political parties experiencing a sharp drop in the most basic measure of civic devotion: pride in being an American. It’s a troubling picture, and nothing on the immediate horizon suggests it will improve any time soon.
The last time this kind of lefty violence happened was in the 1960s, when the issue was Vietnam. It feels like here we go again.
Somebody wrote that the BBB authorizes 10k more border patrol agents, and that DHS will have difficulty hiring them. On the other hand, if Mamdani becomes mayor in NYC, maybe most of the NYPD will be available for hire, and they're already LEO-trained.
